Everything we called out early on about Bravo’s “Startups: Silicon Valley” show seems to have been right: It was an awful, vapid, and inauthentic representation of “entrepreneurship.” People in the Valley pretty universally hated it. Critics almost universally hated it too.

But I was wrong about one thing: I dreaded that it could unleash a “Wall Street”-like torrent of wantrentrepreneur douchebags flooding Silicon Valley. Turns out it won’t, because no one watched the horrid mess.

After moving its time slot once already, because its awful ratings were tainting the whole Monday night lineup, Bravo unceremoniously moved it again, according to BetaBeat. It’ll now air at 6 pm central time on Tuesdays — that’s 4 pm pacific time. Clearly, the producers have just assumed no one who works in the actual, real Silicon Valley is watching.

What’s more, given Christmas is next week, Bravo is dumping the final two shows back to back in the middle of Tuesday afternoon and just moving on. That means after tomorrow, we’re done. This may very well be the last words you ever read from me about it. (Trust me, I hope so too.) Let’s see the cast and producers try to spin this one as good news.

If Randi Zuckerberg can convince Bravo to go ahead with a New York season, she’s one hell of a saleswoman. (BetaBeat also breaks down the dubious reality of that $500,000 that Ben and Hermoine Way supposedly raised in a previous episode.)

It’s unfortunate that “LOLWork” has done even worse in the ratings, since that’s actually about a real entrepreneur and, truth be told, not a bad show. I can’t imagine it represents an actual day in the life at Cheezburger Network — it’s telling that Ben Huh is only on for about five minutes of each episode. But it’s a quirky “The Office”-like take on a genuinely quirky Internet company that’s built an empire off of captioning cat photos. And the characters — while they seem to not get much actual work done — are even sort of lovable in their weirdness. I hope the show gets another shot, but that’d be one hell of a Christmas miracle.

The disappointing ratings of “LOLWork” provide yet another example that big Web audiences almost never translate to TV. No doubt, producers were banking on the massive audience of Cheezburger Network to become viewers, and unlike “Startups: Silicon Valley,” the show didn’t start out by alienating what should have been its core evangelists. They just didn’t seem to tune in.

Facebook has introduced Scrapbook, a new feature that allows parents to share and collect images of their children in one place without requiring them to worry about tagging their kids’ face with each other’s names just to make sure they don’t miss what the other person has posted.

“For all the clumsy rhetorical lip service [former Yahoo News head] Guy Vidra pays to The New Republic’s hallowed intellectual traditions, this is what his vision of a nimble digital news product finally translates into: a vaguely journalistic veneer strategically designed to conceal a rancid interior of ‘elevated’ advertising.”

Indian e-commerce company Flipkart is said to be raising $600 million in its latest bid to compete with Amazon. The company is also said to have garnered a higher valuation with this funding round — quite the feat, considering it was previously valued at around $11.5 billion. [Source: The Economic Times]

Here comes another unicorn: Sprinklr, a New York-based marketing company, has raised $46 million at a $1.17 billion valuation. The funds will be used to help the 700-person company expand its marketing platform. [Source: Fortune]

Curator, the tool Twitter created so the media could find and share tweets with its audience, is now available to the public. Because if there’s anything people wanted to see more of, it’s tweets randomly inserted into blog posts, television spots, and other forms of media. [Source: TechCrunch]

Tinder is refocusing on its spam-fighting efforts in the wake of reports that movie studios are using the service to promote their movies, scammers are attempting to steal information via the app, and pranksters have created tools that trick heterosexual men into flirting with each other.

Uber offers drivers whose accounts have been deactivated a choice: attend a class that requires them to pass an exam, or take a class that doesn’t. The latter has been informed by Uber employees, and the company has sent thousands of drivers to it, according to a report from BuzzFeed. Why is that a problem? Because Uber isn’t supposed to provide its drivers with formal training; doing so makes them bona fide employees, not independent contractors. [Source: BuzzFeed]

Flipboard users will now be able to collect articles and share them via private magazines visible only to members of certain groups. The feature is aimed at students working in the same class, companies sharing press coverage, and other groups that might want an easy way to share Web pages with each other without having to use public tools like Facebook or Twitter.

T-Mobile has tasked its customers with creating a real-world coverage map that makes it easier to tell where its service works and where it doesn’t. Instead of guessing at where its customers will get service — which is what other carriers do, the company claims — it’s asking people to verify its predictions so it can be more honest with consumers.
